<content type='text'>
Refactor of /dev/random device. Main points include:

* Userland seeding is no longer used. This auto-seeds at boot time
on PC/Desktop setups; this may need some tweeking and intelligence
from those folks setting up embedded boxes, but the work is believed
to be minimal.

* An entropy cache is written to /entropy (even during installation)
and the kernel uses this at next boot.

* An entropy file written to /boot/entropy can be loaded by loader(8)

* Hardware sources such as rdrand are fed into Yarrow, and are no
longer available raw.

r256240 | des | 2013-10-09 21:14:16 +0100 (Wed, 09 Oct 2013) | 4 lines

Add a RANDOM_RWFILE option and hide the entropy cache code behind it.
Rename YARROW_RNG and FORTUNA_RNG to RANDOM_YARROW and RANDOM_FORTUNA.
Add the RANDOM_* options to LINT.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r256168 | markm | 2013-10-08 23:14:07 +0100 (Tue, 08 Oct 2013) | 10 lines

Fix some just-noticed problems:

o Allow this to work with "nodevice random" by fixing where the
MALLOC pool is defined.

o Fix the explicit reseed code. This was correct as submitted, but
in the project branch doesn't need to set the "seeded" bit as this
is done correctly in the "unblock" function.

o Remove some debug ifdeffing.

o Adjust comments.

Time to eat crow for me.

I replaced the sx_* locks that Arthur used with regular mutexes;
this turned out the be the wrong thing to do as the locks need to
be sleepable. Revert this folly.

r256138 | des | 2013-10-08 12:05:26 +0100 (Tue, 08 Oct 2013) | 10 lines

Add YARROW_RNG and FORTUNA_RNG to sys/conf/options.

Add a SYSINIT that forces a reseed during proc0 setup, which happens
fairly late in the boot process.

Add a RANDOM_DEBUG option which enables some debugging printf()s.

Add a new RANDOM_ATTACH entropy source which harvests entropy from the
get_cyclecount() delta across each call to a device attach method.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r256135 | markm | 2013-10-08 07:54:52 +0100 (Tue, 08 Oct 2013) | 8 lines

Debugging. My attempt at EVENTHANDLER(multiuser) was a failure; use
EVENTHANDLER(mountroot) instead.

This means we can't count on /var being present, so something will
need to be done about harvesting /var/db/entropy/... .

Some policy now needs to be sorted out, and a pre-sync cache needs
to be written, but apart from that we are now ready to go.

Over to review.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r256094 | markm | 2013-10-06 23:45:02 +0100 (Sun, 06 Oct 2013) | 8 lines

Snapshot.

Looking pretty good; this mostly works now. New code includes:

* Read cached entropy at startup, both from files and from loader(8)
preloaded entropy. Failures are soft, but announced. Untested.

* Use EVENTHANDLER to do above just before we go multiuser. Untested.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r256088 | markm | 2013-10-06 14:01:42 +0100 (Sun, 06 Oct 2013) | 2 lines

Fix up the man page for random(4). This mainly removes no-longer-relevant
details about HW RNGs, reseeding explicitly and user-supplied
entropy.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r256087 | markm | 2013-10-06 13:43:42 +0100 (Sun, 06 Oct 2013) | 6 lines

As userland writing to /dev/random is no more, remove the "better
than nothing" bootstrap mode.

Add SWI harvesting to the mix.

My box seeds Yarrow by itself in a few seconds! YMMV; more to follow.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r256086 | markm | 2013-10-06 13:40:32 +0100 (Sun, 06 Oct 2013) | 11 lines

Debug run. This now works, except that the "live" sources haven't
been tested. With all sources turned on, this unlocks itself in
a couple of seconds! That is no my box, and there is no guarantee
that this will be the case everywhere.

* Cut debug prints.

* Use the same locks/mutexes all the way through.

* Be a tad more conservative about entropy estimates.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r256084 | markm | 2013-10-06 13:35:29 +0100 (Sun, 06 Oct 2013) | 5 lines

Don't use the "real" assembler mnemonics; older compilers may not
understand them (like when building CURRENT on 9.x).

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r256081 | markm | 2013-10-06 10:55:28 +0100 (Sun, 06 Oct 2013) | 12 lines

SNAPSHOT.

Simplify the malloc pools; We only need one for this device.

Simplify the harvest queue.

Marginally improve the entropy pool hashing, making it a bit faster
in the process.

Connect up the hardware "live" source harvesting. This is simplistic
for now, and will need to be made rate-adaptive.

All of the above passes a compile test but needs to be debugged.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r256042 | markm | 2013-10-04 07:55:06 +0100 (Fri, 04 Oct 2013) | 25 lines

Snapshot. This passes the build test, but has not yet been finished or debugged.

Contains:

* Refactor the hardware RNG CPU instruction sources to feed into
the software mixer. This is unfinished. The actual harvesting needs
to be sorted out. Modified by me (see below).

* Remove 'frac' parameter from random_harvest(). This was never
used and adds extra code for no good reason.

* Remove device write entropy harvesting. This provided a weak
attack vector, was not very good at bootstrapping the device. To
follow will be a replacement explicit reseed knob.

* Separate out all the RANDOM_PURE sources into separate harvest
entities. This adds some secuity in the case where more than one
is present.

* Review all the code and fix anything obviously messy or inconsistent.
Address som review concerns while I'm here, like rename the pseudo-rng
to 'dummy'.

r255319 | markm | 2013-09-06 18:51:52 +0100 (Fri, 06 Sep 2013) | 4 lines

Yarrow wants entropy estimations to be conservative; the usual idea
is that if you are certain you have N bits of entropy, you declare
N/2.

r255075 | markm | 2013-08-30 18:47:53 +0100 (Fri, 30 Aug 2013) | 4 lines

Remove short-lived idea; thread to harvest (eg) RDRAND enropy into the
usual harvest queues. It was a nifty idea, but too heavyweight.

r255071 | markm | 2013-08-30 12:42:57 +0100 (Fri, 30 Aug 2013) | 4 lines

into its own files.

to follow.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r254927 | markm | 2013-08-26 19:29:51 +0100 (Mon, 26 Aug 2013) | 15 lines

Snapshot of current work;

1) Clean up namespace; only use "Yarrow" where it is Yarrow-specific
or close enough to the Yarrow algorithm. For the rest use a neutral
name.

2) Tidy up headers; put private stuff in private places. More could
be done here.

3) Streamline the hashing/encryption; no need for a 256-bit counter;
128 bits will last for long enough.

There are bits of debug code lying around; these will be removed
at a later stage.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r254784 | markm | 2013-08-24 14:54:56 +0100 (Sat, 24 Aug 2013) | 39 lines

1) example (partially humorous random_adaptor, that I call "EXAMPLE")
 * It's not meant to be used in a real system, it's there to show how
   the basics of how to create interfaces for random_adaptors. Perhaps
   it should belong in a manual page

2) Move probe.c's functionality in to random_adaptors.c
 * rename random_ident_hardware() to random_adaptor_choose()

3) Introduce a new way to choose (or select) random_adaptors via tunable
"rngs_want" It's a list of comma separated names of adaptors, ordered
by preferences. I.e.:
rngs_want="yarrow,rdrand"

Such setting would cause yarrow to be preferred to rdrand. If neither of
them are available (or registered), then system will default to
something reasonable (currently yarrow). If yarrow is not present, then
we fall back to the adaptor that's first on the list of registered
adaptors.

4) Introduce a way where RNGs can play a role of entropy source. This is
mostly useful for HW rngs.

The way I envision this is that every HW RNG will use this
functionality by default. Functionality to disable this is also present.
I have an example of how to use this in random_adaptor_example.c (see
modload event, and init function)

5) fix kern.random.adaptors from
kern.random.adaptors: yarrowpanicblock
to
kern.random.adaptors: yarrow,panic,block

6) add kern.random.active_adaptor to indicate currently selected
adaptor:
root@freebsd04:~ # sysctl kern.random.active_adaptor
kern.random.active_adaptor: yarrow

GIANT from VFS. This code is particulary broken and fragile and other
in-kernel implementations around, found in other operating systems,
don't really seem clean and solid enough to be imported at all.
If someone wants to reconsider in-kernel NTFS implementation for
inclusion again, a fair effort for completely fixing and cleaning it
up is expected.

In the while NTFS regular users can use FUSE interface and ntfs-3g
port to work with their NTFS partitions.

Winbond Super I/O chips.

With minor efforts it should be possible the extend the driver to support
further chips/revisions available from Winbond.  In the simplest case
only new IDs need to be added, while different chipsets might require
their own function to enter extended function mode, etc.
